Creamy, smoky and super tasty, this Creamy Bow Tie Pasta with Smoked Sausage is the perfect dinner and can be prepared in less than 30 minutes.
I have a special love for easy and quick meals that I can have on the table in less than 30 minutes. Particularly, if they taste as good as this creamy bow tie pasta with smoked sausage. Seriously, I do not lie when I tell you that this is one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever had. I make it all the time because it is completely versatile.
If you’ll like, you can use bacon, ham, chicken, even hot dog sausages and it will taste just as good. You can substitute bow tie with penne, rigatoni, ziti or even spaghetti. See what I mean? Quick, easy and you can use whatever is on hand at the moment.
Now, the one and most important part of this pasta dish is that it’s plainly and without competition my kids’ favorite. When you have a really picky eater in your house like my daughter is, seeing her devour through a plate of food like she does with this pasta is pure joy and absolute proof that the food is GOOD!
So, I am going to urge you all to just go on and try it. You will be happy you did.
